Case studies

Assisted living

« This is one of the most important request of our elderly persons: stay at home as long as possible. However several issues have to be taken into account to insure a descent and secure life to them? What about a non-invasive system that will call the first aid in case of fall in the kitchen? Is there a way to offer a reliable service to families who want to please their close relatives without being worried too much about what they can daily face? »

Building facilities management

« Assume you want to optimize the overall building facilities energy consumption (from ventilation, lighting, to central heating and cooling), one may suggest to install simple movement detectors in each single room. But how will the system adapt the cooling system power and keep the temperature set point if suddenly the room is filled with 20 persons instead of only one? How can we anticipate a rapid variation of carbon dioxide emission? »

Building security

« You are the reference of outdoor perimeter detection but you still need to reduce the unwanted security call to a mobile patrol when it is not necessary (for example ! an animal has breached the perimeter). How can we setup an efficient “doubt removal” system to lower the number of false detection? »
